I bet you $5 that the media is going to focus entirely on what ridiculous statement(s) Coulter makes at CPAC and ignored whatever else takes place. They did exactly that last year, and Moe Lane, James Joyner and I knew it the moment she called Edwards a faggot.

I’ll let you know how it goes – I’ll be there!(I’ve reconsidered my hairdo and hair color since last year.)

Coulter is a fool, but at least she doesn’t cross the big pond to spread her vitriol. Michael Moore, honored guest of the dems at the 2004 convention, told Berliners that Americans are the stupidest people in the world. I would ask the dems if they will continue to let him serve as unofficial ambassador.

As a satirist, for Ann it’s “always about” employing classically liberal means to destroy contemporary liberal myths. That’s how I see it and I’m with her 100% on that. Free speech, like freedom, isn’t free.

As a movement conservative and lifetime Republican, Ann fights tooth and nail to keep their symbiotic relationship alive. That is, so that the movement drives the party and the party drives the movement. I’m not with her 100% on that, but I don’t expect her to change her ways – nor would I want her to change them.

Last year you posted the You Tube clip of Edwards prepping his coif before going on camera, the one where he uses a woman’s compact mirror. You’ve posted other visuals mocking his masculinity (or imputing a woeful lack of it). Clearly, Fausta, you find purpose and humor in all that and even take pleasure in doing so.

I sure do, Jeremayakova, but I do see a huge difference between showing him making a fool of himself, and actually going out and calling him a faggot while making a public speech that was broadcast to the whole country.

Mitt Romney, who preceded her, said with emphasis and a smile that her appearance would be “a good thing.” Not “nice,” as in pleasant, but “good” – borrowing from the Biblical sense, as in it, “…. And it was good,” as in righteous.

The joke was qualified by “if” and “the word ‘faggot’.” Nor did she say exactly how she would apply the adjective, whether it would be qualified or not.
